Last month, Scarlett Johansson split from her husband, Romain Dauriac, and it seems like the actress is now filing for a divorce.

According to the New York Post's Page Six, Scarlett was in court yesterday and actually sued her French ex, saying that their marriage is "irretrievably broken."

Scarlett also asked the judge to grant her full custody of their three-year-old daughter, Rose Dorothy Dauriac, but according to Romain's lawyer, he's prepared to fight her through the proceedings.

The journalist's lawyer, Harold Mayerson, told Page Six: "He would like to move to France with his daughter and Ms. Johansson does a lot of travelling.

"It will be an interesting process."

Scarlett married Romain in 2014, and had their daughter shortly afterwards.

It's one thing to upload a picture with dodgy Photoshop, but it is quite another to share an image that includes the photoshopping instructions. 

Luxury online retailer Net-A-Porter is in a bit of hot water this week after the site uploaded an image which shows a perfectly slim model showcasing a pair of designer socks.

What's unusual about this photo however, are the arrows which point to the model's legs, arms and hips which play host to the command "please, slim."

The image seems to have been uploaded accidentally with the instructions still attached, in place of the photoshopped picture.

The model, whose name is Amelia according to the picture, already looks very slim, and the luxury brand distributor has been called out online for its unnecessary retouching on a photo flogging a pair of socks. 

The image has since been removed from the website and replaced with a new edited version, but not before it was noticed by shoppers.

"@NETAPORTER you might want to edit this pic or better yet delete it??" tweeted one fashion fan. 

While we're all pretty aware that most images in the fashion industry are manipulated or altered in some way, this blatant display of editing a model who is already thin to be thinner is striking. 

Net-A-Porter has yet to comment on the issue.

Most of us seen the video of what went down with Louis Tomlinson in LAX Airport earlier this week (if you didn't, check out here).

The One Direction singer was arrested after a fight broke out between him and a photographer, who was harrassing him and his girlfriend, Eleanor.

Eleanor was also swarmed by fans, which clearly made Louis mad, and all hell kinda broke loose, and now Louis will have to appear in court on March 29 to plead his case.

But, now Perrie Edwards is defending her friend, by saying "he's a really nice guy."

The singer spoke out in support of Louis during an interview with Etalk, saying: "When you watch the video, all he's doing is protecting his girlfriend like any normal guy would.

"But because he's obviously in….which was one of the biggest bands in the world, people are just going to be constantly on him which I think is unfair for him and Eleanor."

Perrie and the Little Mix girls also spoke about how they handle fame, and said they wouldn't know what to do in that situation.

Today is International Women's Day, and so it is only fitting that this afternoon, thousands of Irish women will gather on O'Connell Bridge in Dublin to participate in the Strike 4 Repeal. 

Similar gatherings will be happening all over the country, but before this morning's pickets began,  a few key characters in Dublin's cityscape were already striking. 

On your commute today, you may have noticed that some of Dublin's statues were obscured with black fabric. 

These statues are a symbol of solidarity from the Strike 4 Repeal movement for the 10-12 Irish women who must travel to the UK and further everyday to procure safe abortion practices.

The statues, veiled in black and carrying lightning bolts, the symbol of the movement, are cloaked and striking in alliance to represent how ingrained in Irish society the problem of reproductive rights is. 

In existence but rarely acknowledged, much like the statues, according to Strike 4 Repeal activists. 

The statues were obscured by volunteers of the movement, who were up at the crack of dawn to ensure that the statement would be in place for those who are unable to strike today to see on their way to work.

"We wanted to take a direct action that would make a visual impact," said one activist. 

"Visibility is very important because women who get an abortion in the UK or abroad, they return to a country that is full of stigma where no one talks about it."

"We targeted key monuments to make people aware of the strike. Those who are unable to strike will see the lightning bolt symbol and be reminded of what is going on in town later today," she finished. 

"Let us go out to march today to let out the truth that Ireland is not a safe place for women and pregnant persons," reads a statement on the Strike 4 Repeal Instagram page.  

"That our government is failing us in providing essential reproductive healthcare. That the life of anyone who is pregnant cannot be prioritised because of the 8th Amendment and that tragedies happen."

"That women have been told their physical and mental health must take a backseat. This is what every tourist, visitor, student, and worker to Ireland must know and every Irish person must consider. No more sweeping us under the carpet."

The Strike 4 Repeal movements "Meet me on the Bridge" video campaign has gone viral this week, with over 370,000 views and thousands of likes. 

The strike is happening today, kicking off at 10.30am in a picket at the Department of Justice and culminating in a mass gathering on O'Connell Bridge at 12.30am. 

SHEmazing! will be at the strike, so follow us on Snapchat @shemazingie and keep an eye on our Facebook for live updates.

It looks like Kristen Stewart's long, brunette locks are now a thing of the past.

The actress debuted a drastic new look at the premiere of her new film, Personal Shopper,  in LA last night.

Kristen chopped her hair into a buzzcut style and dyed it peroxide blonde, and we have to say, it looks killer.

The Twilight alum wore an all-black ensemble on the red carpet, and donned heavy eye make-up to go with her new do.

Kristen's new film is a psychological thriller, based on an old ghost story that takes place in the underground fashion scene in Paris.

We think Kristen's new look is absolutely gorgeous.

It looks like Holly Hagan has been left devastated after her boyfriend, Kyle Christie chose to ink HIS face onto her neck.

The pair are set to be featured on Charlotte Crosby's new MTV series, Just Tattoo Of Us.

The couple have had their fair amount of arguements in the Geordie Shore house, but according to insiders, this will be their biggest one yet.

A source told The Sun: “Holly and Kyle haven’t had the smoothest relationship but since she quit Geordie Shore things have been much better between them.

“When the opportunity came for them to support Charlotte in her new job and get a free tattoo, the pair of them jumped at the chance.

“But while Holly put a lot of thought in to her tattoo for Kyle, designing a meaningful pattern, he took a different approach.

“His decision to get a giant picture of his face inked permanently on to her neck left her absolutely furious – she was devastated.

“It’s huge and she thought it was really out of order and thoughtless of him."

It is understood the show will feature various couples, who design each other's tattoos. But, as we all know, it could all go horribly wrong.

The live-action version of Disney classic, Beauty and the Beast, is mere days from its release, and we (like you) are understandably pumped.

But we're not content to merely wait for the film to hit the silver screen, oh no.

We want all the merch before we even buy our ticket, and it looks like we're not the only ones.

From Belle-inspired Juicy Couture collections to beauty serums, we want it all, and we want it now.

But with the JC range coming in at over €800, we'rd rather splash our cash on Primark's adorable Chip Cup, and so would Instagram by the looks of things…

Noah Cyrus hit the red carpet at her first ever awards show last night, and big sister Miley was there to help her every step of the way.

Going above and beyond to support her sis during her iHeartRadio Music Awards performance, Miley went all out with the kind of embarrassing home-made sign most teens would rather a family member didn't make.

Miley also donned an "I Heart Noah" T-shirt dress, and painted her sister's name on the side of her face in glitter.

However, Noah seriously appreciated her sister stepping up as the chairperson of the Noah Cyrus Appreciation Society, as she admitted to being plagued with nerves ahead of her performance. 

"I was having some like, insecurity problems in my dressing room, and she was just there building up my confidence, I honestly am so lucky to have her here," the budding starlet told E News on the red carpet. 

Miley also had the opportunity to present Noah and Labrinth's performance of their hit single Make Me (Cry).

"I am really excited. This next performer is, without a doubt, the coolest person I know. Her voice is amazing, her songwriting is beautiful and relatable," said Miley, holding her "I Love Noah Cyrus" sign.

"She knows who she is as an artist and I can't wait for the whole world to get a load of her vision. She's who I want to be when I grow up, and that's saying a lot, 'cause she's younger than me."

"Get ready, because 2017 is about to be Noah's year."

 

A post shared by NC (@noahcyrus) on

Noah and Miley's parents also turned out for the occasion, and the family had an absolute ball watching their youngest daughter's performance. 

Seriously, if our little sisters ever got famous, we'd be acting as her number one cheerleader too.

We honestly don't know why we're surprised by the Irish weather.

Each and every year without fail, it seems like Ireland gives a little glimpse of sunshine during February, and then come March (when it's supposed to be bright and sunny) it's back to dull days and freezing mornings.

Therefore, our plans of whipping out the sun dresses and light jackets have gone out the window.

So, if you want to be warm and comfy, but still ooze colourful Spring style, here are a few looks to help you out:

 

The light puffer jacket

The puffer jacket is still a major trend for this season, so brighten things up a bit by going for a bold blue or bright yellow.

L-R: ONLY padded jacket – €46.67
New Look pink puffer – €59.99
PrettyLittleThing blue jacket – €60

 

 

Leather/vinyl trousers

While the vinyl trouser trend is huge at the moment, it can be hard to pull off. If you don't fancy it, opt for leather – it'll keep you dry and you'll still look slick.

There are plenty of conflicts going on in the world at the moment, and one singer-songwriter is using her talent to address these issues.

Singer Olivia Burke, who first came to attention at the tender age of 12 after writing a song about missing child Madeline McCann, has scripted a touching hymn about the hardships of the world. 

The unsigned singer's new track Beautiful Dream is an amazing example of Irish talent in action, and her message combats violence and discrimination.

Olivia uses the melodic tune and sweet vocals to convey her dismay at the lack of peace in the world. 

As the title suggests, the concept of a totally peaceful society is a beautiful dream rather than a reality. 

In 2013 her song Stronger Than Words, written about bullying and self harm, was used in schools all over Ireland as part of their Anti Bullying campaigns.

The Offaly teenager has also been nominated in the Best Female category of the Pure M Music Awards. 

This girl is seriously talented, and Beautiful Dream literally gave us goosebumps. 

Have a little listen for yourself.

The pressures associated with today's career-driven society means your mental health can suffer, and caring for it can take a backseat as you attempt to make strides in your chosen field.

A recent study by the Institute of Directors found that only 14 per cent of businesses have a policy in place to help an employee who is suffering with mental health issues.

And to further that, staff using sick days for their mental health has risen by 25 percent over the past number of years.

Work can be hella stressful, and even the best of us can be brought down by deadlines, bad reports, or simply, just a few bad days.

So, to help you when you're feeling a bit down, here are five steps to take to boost your mood and not let work get the better of you:

1. Take notes

Keep a work notebook and write down the various situations and tasks that make you feel the most stressed or give you anxiety. 

Recording your thoughts and seeing them on paper can be great for clearing your mind, and combating whatever issues you may have.

 

2. Create boundaries

With today's technology, it can seem like you're on the go 24/7. Even if a work email arrives in your inbox at 9pm, most people feel inclined to reply.

Establish some boundaries for yourself and make sure you switch off by a certain time each day. Relax your mind and forget about work.

 

3. Recharge

While a lot of Irish businesses don't have mental health guidelines in place, there's no issue with using your holiday days.

Plan to do some of your favourite activities on those days, and don't even think about work. By letting yourself recharge, you'll be more relaxed when stepping back into the workplace.

 

4. Have an open conversation

If work is really getting you down and you feel like it's making a negative impact on your mental health, talking to your boss/supervisor could be very beneficial.

Have an honest conversation about how your feeling, and clarify what might make things better. It might be scary to open up, but a weight will be lifted off your shoulders when you do.

 

5. Speak to a professional

If you feel like your mental health is on a downward spiral, help yourself by talking to a professional.

There are numerous websites, call lines and counselling services here in Ireland that can help you with any issues you might have.

You can check out Mental Health Ireland for a list of services or visit Grow to look at resources in your area.

Remember, you are more important.

Three whole years after Dancing on Ice was axed, ITV is reportedly considering revamping the classic celebrity dancing show. 

The channel wants to bring back the ice skating series for 2017, according to The Sun.

The show was once the third-highest rated on the channel, and ITV boss Kevin Lygo reportedly wants it back. 

“Kevin always thought ITV axing Dancing on Ice was a mistake so now the idea of bringing it back is being looked at," a source told The Sun. 

“It was a smash hit, and even at its worst was still pulling in more than some of the shows currently on telly – particularly in the Sunday night slot."

“It’s very early days and nothing has been commissioned just yet but it’s definitely on the to-do list."

“A Sunday night slot would make a lot of sense,” continued the source. 

The show first hit our screens in 2006 and was presented by dream duo Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.

 

A post shared by Sara Yasmina Chafak (@sarachafak) on

The show wrapped up in 2015 after a dip in ratings, but looking at the Twitter reactions to the news, fans would welcome the show back with open arms. 

"Dancing on Ice is coming back…. buzzed for this so much and it's my mums favourite," said one.

"If the rumours are true about #DancingOnIce returning, I will be the happiest person ever," said another.
